Tonight's WWE SmackDown will air live from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas with more hype for the September 11th Backlash pay-per-view. Tonight's show will feature Heath Slater and Rhyno competing in the tag team tournament to crown the first SmackDown Tag Team Champions, possibly against former WWE Tag Team Champions The Headbangers.

SmackDown will also feature Daniel Bryan responding to WWE Intercontinental Champion The Miz after their heated "Talking Smack" confrontation last Tuesday night.
